My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 391

His deep voice and ambiguous words made Florence’s heart jump into her throat. She even stopped breathing.

She wondered what on earth he was doing.

“Why are you here?” Florence said stiffly, her heart hammering. She tried to ease her embarrassment now.

Her legs were still weakened and she even couldn’t stand up. She had to lean against Ernest. However, nestling in his arms, she felt so awkward, her mind in a mess.

Ernest, however, was holding her quite naturally. He even tightened his arms slightly so that she clung to him closer.

With her soft body in his arms, he finally felt that his empty heart was fulfilled.

He gazed at her deeply and answered, stressing each syllable, “I’m here for you.”

His answer reechoed in her mind.

Florence was startled all of a sudden. All her guesses before were confirmed by him in person, but she still felt as if she was in a dream, so untrue.

Since he could locate the Fraser family, she knew that he must have put on a lot of effort. He must have used a lot of means and came through thousands of miles to reach here. Much to her surprise, he did that because he was looking for her.

She wondered why.

Florence’s mind was blank. Countless possibilities flashed through her mind in an instant, but with her blank mind, she didn’t have the guts to ensure anyone.

She looked at him in a daze and whispered, “What do you want?”

“What do I want? Can’t you still tell it?”

Ernest slightly bent down his head, his handsome face approaching Florence in an instant.

His heat breath overwhelmed her face ambiguously as if he would kiss her lips at any time.

Florence’s body was stiffened. She gaped at the handsome face that was so close to her. She blushed and her heart hammered. The seductive breath from him almost broke down all her defense.

With a messy mind, she subconsciously pushed him away.

She said in a panic, “I don’t know. Please let go of me.”

By instinct, she wanted to escape.

When they were in City N, she wanted to be with him happily. She treated him wholeheartedly, but until now, she could still remember the conversation between Grandma Georgia and him.

From the very beginning, he didn’t like her truly. He wanted to marry her and treated her well because she was the daughter of the Fraser family.

She was afraid that the fact he came to find her through thousands of miles, and the things that he had done for her was just because of her identity. All the ambiguity was just an illusion based on her wishful thinking.

Ernest suddenly tightened his arm wrapped around Florence’s waist. Again, he pulled her into his arms.

He looked at her deeply and explained in a helpless tone, “If I care about your identity, when we were in City N before you didn’t have anyone to rely on, I would have forced you to marry me.”

If he wanted to do that, she couldn’t be able to resist at all.

Florence stopped struggling. She retorted in a panic, “That’s because I’ve heard about it, so you...”

So he agreed to call off the engagement straightforwardly and let her leave City N.

After all, Ernest was such a proud man. She didn’t believe that he would be so evil to force her to marry him.

“If you hadn’t heard my conversation with Grandma, would you confess your love to me?”

Ernest’s voice was lowered a bit, with tenderness and warmth.

Florence was startled instantly. Her face changed between pale and red.

It wasn’t until now did she recall her decoration in Ernest’s villa. She left with a broken heart and deliberately ignored things about Ernest. It turned out that she had forgotten her decoration in his villa.

However, it was Ernest’s villa no matter what. No servant would go there to clean it up usually. As long as Ernest went over, he could see it.

She guessed that he probably had seen it.

Florence felt so embarrassed and ashamed. She shook her head awkward to deny. “I don’t know what you are talking about. Please don’t misunderstand the decoration in your villa. I just prepared it for welcoming you home from the hospital. Nothing else.”
